I've had my 2018 Hatchback EX for almost two weeks and I only just noticed this... clicking or ticking noise coming from under the hood or near left driver wheel when it's idle? Like yes I assume the car will make noise, but it just seems awfully loud. Is this normal?

Haha, the first time I opened my hood with my car running, I thought "OH SHIT MY VALVES!! WHAT HAVE I DONE?!"

Then I learned about direct injection motors. :D

Mine does the same but it's port injection... I'm not sure about the clicking on a non DI engine
